Frank, Schmidt Litho Co. printed the Obaks for ATC. Their building was/is in sf and is now the Clocktower Lofts. My Dad used to live in that building. I remember they had a display of different lithographs for cans and crates that were found in the building. I'm sure that's where they printed the Obaks. They were there starting 1907.

Schmidt Lithographic Co. indeed printed the Obaks. Schmidt Litho. was the west coast's equivalent to American Litho. If you are visiting San Fran,
take the time to visit the Clocktower Bldg.....for in it there is a museum featuring a lot of their beautifully lithographed products.

Unfortunately, the American Lithographic Bldg. on Park Avenue South & 19th Street in NYC doesn't feature such a museum. It has been converted
to professional offices.
